My very first confession!

So I am totally and completely one of those women that "blog stalks" people I don't even know. I love to get a little glimpse into other peoples' lives and see how they live day to day... Unfortunately, I am also one of those people that asks, "Why don't I do that? Wow, she is a way better Mom than me! It's like her everyday life is a real life pinterest. She seriously has time to do ALL of that?" I see blogs about Moms and their kids who dress cuter than I ever could. Moms who dress so cute, they want to show off their outfits so they will post a selfie at least once a blog post. Moms who rant and rave about how perfect their child's first day of school was.. Already the favorite in the class! and Moms who, without a recipe, can create dishes that could be served in a top dollar restaurant. I am sooo not that Mom!! I am the mom who is lucky if she gets out of her PJ's or puts a bra on.
Exchange the word Sunday for Everyday!

I am the Mom who, if I posted a selfie of my day to day look, would have to hide under the bed due to embarrassment! I am the Mom who picked her son up from preschool his very first day only to find out her got a "yellow" for punching another child who tattled on him! 
Not one of his best days! 

I am the Mom who, for example, has made teriyaki (sauce from scratch) chicken with salt instead of sugar.. You can imagine the look on my husband's poor face when he took a bite of that!  Life of a housewife who has 2 kids, one on the way, and one car shared with a husband who works 10 hours a day is NOT easy! It is painfully difficult sometimes and extremely rewarding most! I have come to realize I am probably, NO, I am definitely not the only woman who feels this way. That is why I have decided to blog about my REAL life. Not just the happy, incredible "yeah, my family rocks!" times, but the sad, embarrassing, "oh no I hope they don't realize that is my kid!" times. I hope you can all find the humor and truthfulness of this blog to be refreshing. All I really want out of this is for another Mom to come across this blog and see she is not alone! Enjoy!

  2. Thank you for your post and being honest. I, too, feel the same way. My son is the one who brings home "yellow" quite often, I don't cook, but maybe once a week and I worry too much what other people think!
